There's a lot going on to counter some of the more negative stuff that you hear in the media.
But I think Sam McBride in his piece references the loyalist paramilitaries watching on as the rioting took place.
I think there has been a complete, total and utter failure.
on the part of political unionism in the North.
And I do want to commend, and it's not just Michelle O'Neill, and it's not just because she's Sinn Féin, but she has shown incredible leadership, as have the team.
And they were on straight back out into communities, talking directly to people, because that's what people need.
They need their politicians to turn up, to hear their concerns, to listen to them and to give them as much reassurance as they can.
I think we also need to be conscious, and I would disagree with Pat there in relation to the leaders in the north.
The Sinn Féin mayor of Belfast, she only took over in the last couple of weeks.
She has shown, a young woman has shown incredible leadership in her own community and right across Belfast and as a consequence is in receipt of death threats for her action and I think when you see that you really need to back those politicians who are showing that leadership and I think that's true of Michelle and others because what they did was they went straight into the communities to talk to people from migrant backgrounds to give them that reassurance which I think is really, really important.
Yeah, but we shouldn't ignore it if that's an element of it, because we do need to understand this.
